Landrieu ad walks, Jindal straw 5th, Whitney poll says she leads

The Mary Landrieu campaign has turned towards the positive as it released a new television ad titled, “Walked Miles.” The ad is running statewide. The TV ad features retired Navy Capt. Tom Nagelin who walks on a highway to reflect what her campaign says is Landrieu’s long record of supporting the military and military families.

“When you’re in the military, you remember those who walked the extra mile with you,” Nagelin said in the ad. “And Senator Mary Landrieu has walked miles with us.”
